There are other issues as well, like for example most of these street food vendors are poor people making a living out of selling food under the most difficult circumstances.So actually if government gives them help to set up canteens that are affordable and hygienic it would help both the children and the street food vendors..

I agree. The present scenario is not rosy. But the Ball is the court of elected Government on whom electorate invested faith. It remains to be seen to what extent, the Government measures up to the expectations of the People.

Hope such a government becomes a reality soon. At present every thing seems so bleak with even the soldiers who sacrifice their lives for the country having to fight for their dues .

India needs it.No doubt Martial Law has the capability of making India a Disciplined country. No, it is the wishful thinking of not only you but of everybody's. There are several other ways of making the the country disciplined through the existing constitutional provisions. But it needs a determined government and courage.

The severe desert climate made a lot of residents move to live underground, in caves. People made their underground homes comfortable. And they appear to have all the amenities of a house that are on the Plains.

The question was does India need it? The answer is yes it would have done India a great deal good , if it could be implemented because no political party can ensure that kind of discipline and security for the country.... it is wishful thinking that such a day will come..but then I'm an optimist

In a country like India Martial law doesn't mean a country is run by army but the help of army is taken to maintain the law and order. There have been several instances where martial law was imposed in my area when the situation went out of control or the administration thought the situation could go out of hands. I have seen it here in my own city when army/BSF/SPF/ RAF/ ITBP were deployed to keep situation under control. When army has power of shoot at site in its hand everything runs smoothly. We had our area under army's control during kanwar yatra this month itself.
Using the Army in dealing with disturbances is already there. Even if Martial Law is imposed, it bust be for a short while. But imposing Martial Law is out of question.

That's what everyone in favor of a martial law is saying. We need a short term martial law to help the elected government where the situation is out of control. For instance, Chattisgarh, J&K, other riot/terror hit areas and parts of bordering states where infiltration is going on.
Martial Law for a short term is OK. I said this in one of my threads.

Coober pedy is a very beautiful and unusual town although people who live there are indeed courageous and a hardy lot for its not easy to lead such a life. I had earlier read about this town in a quite old issue of RD.

Having an exclusive Boddunan group in FB will expose the site for more FB members, which in turn help in increasing the traffic to the site. Of course, this is an assumption. We have to see whether serves the purpose or not over a period.

While going through the topics, tumbled upon this. I am in favor of Martial law. So far as the instances of misconduct of army personnel is concerned, it is one off instance that we see and media focus is so much on it that it seems that things are out of control there. On the contrary when such an incident occurs, serious steps are taken against the offender. Such cases are way much more in civil which probably is taken as normal occurrence and therefore not brought to people's notice. The services provided by the armed forces , discipline and rules followed by the armed forces are perfect to deal with the troubled situation in the country.

I am really pleased to see the new, fresh look of boddunan. Maverick, thanks for changing the look and also adding the smileys back. It is good and refreshing to log in and see the fresh, clean look. So far no problem, but I am sure whatever tiny kinks are there would be soon ironed out.
